AEM Performance Air Intake Kit Polished 2016+ Ford Focus RS

AEM Performance Air Intake Kit Polished 2016+ Ford Focus RS increases intake efficiency while delivering development-validated reliability through extensive engineering and testing.

This intake was developed to improve and upgrade the factory induction system on the 2016+ Ford Focus RS. Engineers invested many hours in development, performing a plethora of tests to validate fit, function, and durability under real-world conditions.

Design and materials: The polished finish provides corrosion-resistant surfaces suitable for engine-bay environments, and the kit is packaged as a complete replacement intake to interface with the RS turbo system without modifying the factory layout.

Performance intent: The kit targets improved intake airflow and consistent delivery across operating conditions. Development testing focused on confirming the intake's performance contribution while maintaining the vehicle’s expected reliability and manufacturability.

Compatibility and support: This product is offered by Mishimoto, whose motorsports-oriented catalog and engineering background complement the AEM intake design. Mishimoto’s involvement ensures customer access to vendor support and the supply chain associated with motorsports-grade components.

Why it matters

Engineered development and testing — many hours of engineering and a broad test program reduce the risk of fitment or endurance issues after installation.

Polished finish — resists environmental degradation in the engine bay and maintains appearance over time.

Direct-replacement design — intended to integrate with the vehicle’s existing turbo plumbing and mounting points to minimize installation complexity.
